I thought I'd share these printable key terms, which can be cut out and used as (smaller than normal) revision cards, with other people like me doing the GCSE AQA Geography B, Unit 3 exam. I hope they're helpful for many people, because (to me anyway) key terms are hard to remember, even after going over them day after day, but perhaps the pictures I've added to the background make it easier to remember them. Maybe take a leaf out of my book too and stick them around your bedroom. Good luck for your exam!!
